The revolutionary use of ammonia (NH3) * as a fertilizer has greatly benefited human food production. Recently, it has drawn attention again, as the use of green ammonia is considered a significant ...

Scientists in Korea develop a cleaner and cheaper method to produce ammonia on a large scale and reduce emissions.

Ammonia may conjure thoughts of off odors, but the world is entirely dependent on the smelly stuff as a fertilizer and for use in myriad other industries. Problem is, nearly all the ammonia produced ...

In this study, ultrasmall molybdenum (Mo) metal particles were used to help break the triple bonds between nitrogen atoms in nitrogen gas (N2) at lower than standard temperatures and pressure, thus ...

The Haber-Bosch process, which is widely used to produce ammonia (NH 3), the basis for synthetic nitrogen fertilizers, by blending hydrogen (H 2) and nitrogen (N 2) over catalysts at high pressures ...

The search for a new ammonia-synthesis method has now driven research and development work underground, literally. Addis ...

Researchers have now been able to study the surface of iron and ruthenium catalysts when ammonia is formed from nitrogen and hydrogen. A better knowledge of the catalytic process and the possibility ...

Nanocatalysts, with their small size and high surface area-to-volume ratio, significantly enhance catalytic activity in industrial processes such as ammonia production. 1 By integrating nanocatalysts, ...

Ammonia is commonly used in fertilizer because it has the highest nitrogen content of commercial fertilizers, making it essential for crop production. However, two carbon dioxide molecules are made ...
